The story
SPACE, STORAGE AND STYLE — this 2021 Jacobsen home has all three! Beautifully positioned on a large corner lot in the gated 55+ Caribbean Isles Residential Cooperative, this impressive home offers 1,860 square feet under air and approximately 2,940 total square feet, with a thoughtfully designed split floor plan that provides both openness and privacy. Inside, you’ll find three bedrooms PLUS a dedicated office, spacious living areas, neutral décor, and crown molding throughout the main living spaces. The open kitchen is designed for homeowners who actually enjoy using their kitchen, with stainless steel appliances, solid-surface countertops, generous cabinetry, a pantry with pull-out shelving, and plenty of room to keep everything organized. A separate dining area sits conveniently adjacent to the kitchen, creating an easy flow for everyday meals as well as entertaining. The split-bedroom design gives the primary suite its own private retreat, complete with TWO walk-in closets, a jetted soaking tub, and a separate walk-in shower. Bedrooms two and three are located away from the primary suite — and each has its own walk-in closet. Storage is exceptional throughout this home, with thoughtfully placed closets and spaces that make downsizing a whole lot easier when you don't actually have to give everything up! Florida living deserves great outdoor space, and this home delivers. A large screened lanai with Trex decking provides plenty of room for dining, entertaining, or relaxing in the Florida breeze, with additional outdoor space when you want to enjoy the sunshine. Then there is the storage area — and this is much more than an ordinary shed. Insulated and air conditioned, it features steel shelving, double doors, an indoor golf-cart charging station, and space that can accommodate up to two golf carts. Use it for climate-controlled storage, a workshop, hobbies, or golf-cart parking. The home's expanded parking pad provides room for up to four vehicles, while the covered carport gives you additional flexibility for a vehicle or golf carts. Quality and practicality continue with well-insulated exterior siding, solid subfloors, and a layout that feels welcoming from the moment you enter. At just a few years old, this home offers the space and features many buyers want without giving up the relaxed atmosphere of a Florida 55+ community. And here's where Caribbean Isles makes the package even better. This is a resident-owned cooperative with NO LOT RENT. Ownership includes a share in the cooperative, with a monthly maintenance fee of just $242, which contributes to community amenities, activities, professional management, and replacement reserves. Caribbean Isles is a waterfront community with a network of canals and community water access available to shareholders for boating and kayaking. Launch from the community and enjoy access toward Tampa Bay and the Gulf, or simply spend the day closer to home enjoying the heated pool, clubhouse, recreational amenities, social activities, and miles of private roads perfect for walking, biking, and golf-cart cruising.Located in Apollo Beach on Florida's Gulf Coast, Caribbean Isles is convenient to shopping, restaurants, medical services, entertainment, beaches, and major highways within easy reach.If you've been looking for a newer Florida home but aren't ready to give up on space, storage, parking, privacy, or lifestyle, this home deserves to be at the top of your list.
